Midwest Prowash Roof Cleaning Explanation

 
Thank you MidWest ProWash for this great explanation for the homeowner.

Your house is most likely your biggest investment and your roof is one of the most expensive parts of your house. It is extremely important to have the utmost in confidence in your decision before hiring a qualified Tennessee Roof Cleaning Contractor. 

Great White Technologies only uses chemicals approved by the ARMA* (Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association) and does not use pressure on your roof shingles. Our chemicals provide enough cleaning power to remove all roof algae, mildew, and black streaks on your roof...without any pressure washing or heavy rinsing. We guarantee your Tennessee Roof will look brand new after cleaning.

Pressure washing is never recommended to clean a roof in Tennessee because it will remove a large amount of the ceramic coated granules from your shingles, which will void the roofing warranty. Even low pressure will cause roof granule loss and shorten the life of your roofing shingles. If you have ever cleaned out the inside of your gutters you will notice dislodged roofing granules in them just from the rain taking them off. Think what any additional pressure would do to your roof. For instance, you see someone cleaning a roof in Tennessee with pressure and it appears they have done a good roof cleaning job just because the black streaks and roof discoloration are gone, but guess what? So is a large amount of the roofs protective ceramic coated granules which insure your shingle's warranty. Nobody wants to replace a prematurely failed roof in Tennessee due to an incompetent roof cleaning contractor, and you shouldn't have to.

Always use a 'chemical only' cleaning process for your roof. Roof Cleaning is a completely different trade from pressure washing, requiring different pumps, plumbing, hoses, nozzles, valves, chemicals, caution, knowledge, experience, skill, and insurance. Great White Technologies of Middle Tennessee has all of the necessary tools.
 
Make sure you know what kind of roof cleaning chemicals are being applied on your property. Do not accept "it's biodegradable" for an answer. Even uranium is biodegradable over 50,000 years or so. Our roof cleaning chemicals do all of the work to remove black streaks and Algae discoloration from your roof and require no pressure or heavy rinsing. Because we do not have to rinse, your roof will stay cleaner longer than our competitors. Leaving the chemicals on the roof creates a roof treatment or a hostile environment for future algae growth. Each time it rains, a small amount of roof cleaning chemical is washed off to help re-clean your roof over and over again.


Concerned about your plants, pets, and landscaping?

We only spray the roof, not your plants. We always bag the ends of your downspouts and collect all the chemical run-off from the roof and dispose of them away from your landscaping. After the roof cleaning chemical biodegrades and evaporates from the roof, the dried crystals and surfactant act as a roof treatment and keep the roof cleaner longer as it rains
